At the event, Ankur Goyal, Vice President of Engineering at MemSQL will show attendees how to create their own real-time data pipelines step by step. Live on stage, he will build PowerStream, an Internet of Things (IoT) application visualizing and predicting wind turbine health, using Kafka, MemSQL Streamliner, and machine learning. With applications like PowerStream, energy companies can easily process data from billions of sensors while performing predictive analytics to drive efficiency. These models also apply to other data-driven industries such as financial services, telecommunications, and e-commerce.

“Companies today are consumed by data, and those that apply it effectively stand to win,” said Eric Frenkiel, CEO and co-founder, MemSQL. “Organizations must be able to adapt to data in real time in order to understand market trends, speed innovation, and drive growth. Companies embracing new models with hybrid transactional and analytical data processing will quickly surpass those bound by legacy solutions.”

Attendees at the summit can also explore TaxiStats, a real-time dashboard application with Zoomdata. TaxiStats simulates pickup and drop-off from real taxi ride data, streamed into MemSQL and visualized with Zoomdata. The business intelligence dashboard displays data as it is collected while simultaneously running SQL analytics.
